Afghan women should not work with men, said the high-ranking commander of the Taliban (the “Taliban” movement is recognized as terrorist and prohibited in Russia) Vakhidulla Hashimi (Waheedullah Hashimi), writes Reuters.
Thus, Afghan women will lose opportunities to work in government agencies, banks, media, most companies. According to him, the movement decided to fully follow his vision of the norms of Sharia and Islamic law, contrary to the West protest. The representatives of the weaker sex will be able to work only where there is no men, he explained the rules for admission to the work of Afghan women.
Hashima added that contacts between men and women outside the house will be resolved under certain circumstances, for example, when going to the doctor. “We certainly need women, for example, in medicine, education. We will have separate institutions for them, hospitals, maybe universities, schools, madrasas,” he added.
According to the World Bank, the share of women among the working people of Afghan citizens in 2020 was 23 percent compared with the actual zero indicator during the last rule of Taliban in 2001.
